BENCHMARK / 1 OF 9 RUNS COMPLETE
Same artwork. Same motion. Scored before the winner is known.
This page publishes the inputs, scoring rubric and incomplete status so the final comparison cannot quietly change its rules after seeing the outputs.
Fixed inputs
One original anime-style still
The same image is used for identity, costume, background and composition checks.

One five-second motion clip
Models should borrow movement and timing without importing the reference performer's appearance.

| Criterion | What is checked | Points |
|---|---|---|
| Face and style | Contours, eyes, hair and rendering remain consistent | 20 |
| Costume and props | Shapes and details do not disappear or mutate | 15 |
| Hands and anatomy | No obvious extra limbs, collapse or fusion | 15 |
| Motion fidelity | Timing and major movement follow the reference | 20 |
| Motion quality | Movement is usable rather than merely present | 15 |
| Background and camera | No unwanted drift, zoom or scene change | 10 |
| Workflow cost | Time, credits and retries are recorded | 5 |
Preliminary MiniMax H3 result: 84 / 100
The first local result preserved character identity and broad motion direction well enough to remain in the comparison. It is not a cross-tool winner: Runway and Seedance 2.5 have not yet been generated under the same conditions.
Only one of nine planned runs is complete. No claim about a best overall tool is supported yet. Prices, model versions and provider access may also change before the remaining runs.
